[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]APS teacher of 10 years here - and I am beyond embarrassed by how outraged my colleagues are acting. I am actually happy about the switch to Blue Cross Blue Shield. In previous jobs I've held, insurance carriers have switched, and it hasn't been a big deal. Everyone saying they need days and days off to search for new doctors is beyond ridiculous. I watched the school board comments and I cringed. A small group of APS teachers act so outraged over EVERYTHING and they give the rest of us a bad reputation. Just want people to know we aren't all this crazy. And the people who speak at school board meetings (including one very vocal teacher) - DO NOT represent the majority of teachers in APS. [/quote] THANK YOU! I wish that you and other teachers like you could speak out publicly about this, but I understand that the current climate (ahem, AEM) would make that a very bad idea. I also respect that you actually shouldn't have to speak out b/c this is your private business and no one needs to air that for all of Arlington to see. I wish that the people on AEM would see how their actions might not look how they think they look. And the parents who are suggesting that teachers will check out and leave are a huge part of the problem. For the most part, I love the teachers my kid has had and I am grateful to not see their names on AEM.[/quote]
